Carmela's Story...

Carmela's Story...

Carmela is so amazing…..loving and loyal. I believe she is a Jack Russell Chihuahua which is a popular Hybrid…has some trust behavior towards anyone who just wants to grab She is currently in a foster home with 2 other dogs and has fit in perfectly. She is friendly with dogs and people, but can be shy towards people if they move fast and get in her face.

I am taking her on outings to Home Depot, Petco, Hobby Lobby and allowing strangers to offer her treats. This will help her to overcome that fear of strangers.

Carmela is a mix of light shades of golden brown with Chocolate brown features around her Eyes, Mouth, Nose, Nails, and Paw Pads. Carmela is Spayed, is current on all immunizations including Rabies and has been wormed and cleared for parasites. Her teeth have been corrected already, being a toy breed had baby teeth which were pulled as part of her care.

Carmela has acclimated to a mix of other home pets large and small….she is the only Toy being the smallest. She is ready to move to a loving Forever home with a Guardian to care and teach any additional training.

Carmela is housebroken to a doggie door, leash trained, knows commands come, sit, stay, wait, and "treat". Does very well with commands if there is something in it for her.

About Our Rescue Group...

We are a pending non-profit, no-kill rescue organization dedicated to rescuing and rehoming adoptable cats and dogs. We have over 40 years of combined rescue experience and knowledge.

Come Meet Our Pets...

We do not have a kennel / shelter type of facility. We believe the most effective and successful way to match families and pets is to foster them in our own homes. Ultimately fostering our rescue animals in homes rather than a kennel environment allows us to give you complete information on the pet's behavior and how well he / she will fit with your family and lifestyle.

Our Adoption Process...

At Valley Dogs we make every effort to place the right animal in the right home. To aid in this goal, we use trained Adoption Consultants to help you select the best match for your lifestyle. You will meet with an Adoption Consultant and discuss your lifestyle, activity level, expectations, likes/dislikes, and past experiences with animals. Your consultant will then recommend the best match for your family and your lifestyle.

Humane America Animal Foundation, dba Adopt-a-Pet.com, is a non-profit, tax-deductible 501(c)(3) adoption advertising charity. Our mission (and passion) is to help
get homeless pets out of the shelters and into loving homes. Let us know what you think! Suggestion & Comment Box
